Chapter 76 Uncle? Slave Driver

They agreed to leave from their own places.

:

After waiting forever for a ride, Dawn just decided to drive Ethan’s car herself.

When she got to the hotel, Anna was also just arriving.

“Wow, look at you–a rich girl now,” Anna said, spinning around to check out the Maserati. “Gotta say, your fiancé treats you really well–and he’s loaded.”

Dawn laughed and gave her a playful smack. “I’m just borrowing it for a bit. Come on, drop your stuff and let’s go get something to eat.”

The two of them were laughing as they walked toward the hotel. Anna reminded her, “The car’s not locked.”

“It’s not like anyone’s gonna steal it …” Dawn muttered, fishing the keys out of her bag to lock it.

As she turned around, she froze under the intense gaze of a man not far away. She instinctively called out, “Uncle Austin …

Anna followed her gaze–and yep, it really was Austin.

He was dressed all in black, his presence cold and oppressive. He strode to Dawn and asked in a cold voice, “Where did you get that car?”

The weather was nice, sunlight filtering through the bare branches and landing on Dawn’s pale cheeks. Her lashes fluttered, and after a moment, she said, “A friend’s.”

Austin didn’t let it go. “What friend?”

He squinted. “How do I not know you have friends here in Northville?”

“You-”

Anna was about to speak, but Dawn grabbed her arm and shook her head silently. Then she turned back to Austin and said, “My boyfriend.

“Uncle Austin, I have a boyfriend.”

Austin was shocked.

His pupils constricted in disbelief. Slowly, he asked, “You Say that again?”

Dawn looked him in the eye. “I’m in a relationship, and no matter how many times I say it, it won’t change. My boyfriend will take care of me from now on, so you can stop worrying, Uncle Austin.”

Anna, who had been ready to back her up, almost burst out laughing at that.

What is it with Austin? He looks like he is on his deathbed.

Austin’s gaze darkened even more. He glared at Dawn as if he wanted to burn a hole through her.

Dawn didn’t flinch, just squeezed Anna’s hand tighter. “We have things to do, so we won’t keep you, Uncle Austin. Goodbye.”

“Stop!”

Austin grabbed her hand with a grip so tight it felt like her bones would break.

“How long have you even been away from home? And you’re already messing around with a random guy? Dawn, you need to be disciplined!”

“Did you forget, Uncle Austin?” Dawn said quickly and coldly, ignoring the pain in her wrist. “You and Sydney told me I needed to grow up. I’m making my own choices, and I’ll take responsibility for the consequences.”

His gaze was as cold as ice. “Are you sure you want to go against me?”

“I’m not going against you,” Dawn said. “I’ve just woken up after your reminder that I should live my own life.”

“Fine, good for you.”

Austin’s face was dark as iron. “Don’t regret this!”

He violently threw her hand away and stormed off.

Anna caught Dawn, who had almost fallen, and finally started shouting. “What’s wrong with him? Just because someone doesn’t live by your rules, you lose it? You call yourself uncle? More like a slave driver …”

“Anna, stop,” Dawn said, tugging her sleeve. “Let’s just drop it.”

Anna was furious and made two mocking faces in the direction Austin had gone.

“You’re right to leave him. He’s crazy. He won’t be with you, but he won’t let you be with anyone else. He just wants to control you!”

“Anna, he’s done a lot for me.”

Dawn looked her in the eye.

Anna went silent, like a gun that had just run out of bullets.

Dawn forced a smile and turned, dragging her suitcase toward the front desk. “I don’t have to like him, but I must respect him. I have to work hard to earn enough money to pay him back for everything… I will.”

Her steps were steady, but after just a few steps, the road ahead blurred as tears fell.

This wasn’t what she wanted.

She really didn’t want things to get so tense with Austin, but why did it have to be impossible to make everyone happy?

After the earlier incident, Dawn and Anna were a little quiet. After they dropped off their luggage and got back into the car, Dawn fastened her seat belt and asked, “What do you want to eat?”

Anna glanced at her. “You still have an appetite?”

“Why not?”

Dawn chuckled. “Come on, I’m not that fragile.”

“Great,” Anna said, letting out a heavy sigh and relaxing. “Let’s grab some local food first, then go drinking! Damn it, let those stupid guys just go away!”

Dawn just smiled and pressed the gas pedal.

When she first came to Northville, Ethan took her to an authentic local spot. Now, she decided to share that with Anna, taking her to the same place.
